Read AI discloses a full set of data-subject rights, a dated and versioned policy, and named international-transfer safeguards. It trains on user data by default under legitimate interest with only an opt-out, it shares and sells identifiers, commercial, and inference categories for advertising with an opt-out, and it stays silent on output ownership, breach notification, and a sub-processor list. These gaps place it in the upper-C band.

What Read AI's privacy policy says about your data

Trains by default with opt-out

The policy relies on legitimate interest to "train and improve our models within our Services" by default and offers an opt-in Customer Experience Program plus an in-meeting "opt out" command, so training stays on until the user acts.

Shares and sells data for ads with opt-out

Read AI states plainly that "we share and sell" identifiers, commercial, and inference categories to marketing and advertising partners, with opt-out via Cookie Settings, Global Privacy Control, and a web form. Meeting Information is not shared for ads without consent.

Two-year cap on audio and video

Retention is concrete for the core data: "we will store your audio and video information ... but in no case for longer than 2 years." Other data is kept "as long as necessary."

Named transfer safeguards and full EU rights

The policy certifies adherence to the EU-U.S., Swiss-U.S., and UK Data Privacy Frameworks and relies on contractual clauses. The Europe section names access, rectification, deletion, restriction, objection, and portability rights.

Not stated: whether training use differs by plan
